In the Introduction, Freddie is a mall employee who used the mall as refuge with other survivors as the town was overcome by the zombie outbreak. He was first seen erecting a barricade at the Entrance Plaza with Chris Hines and Ryan LaRosa.

When Lindsay attempted to remove to barricade to rescue her dog, Freddie tried futilely to stop her and pull her back into the mall. Unfortunately, he couldn't grab Lindsay and fell backwards as zombies killed him.
